The Republican Party and some of its spokes people are hitting rock bottom with many of us wondering how we ever stayed Republican for so long. What I have learned in the last six years makes my head swim today! How could you even defend such a Party when it starts rotting from the head down with the RNC Chair Priebus being unethical starting with his days as head of the Wisconsin GOP. He is a perfect fit to head the GOP -- still unethical using RNC funds to support Governor Walker during recall while sending out letters looking for donations to the RNC for their Convention but like so many of the worthless Republican National Committees in the past they chose to look the other way!
On a sidenote -- a very good friend and I tried to get the RNC Chair canned in 2000 by contacting all the members of the Committee as the RNC Chair was showing a bias in the Presidential primary for Senator McCain. Effort failed but looking back that was probably my start of being disgusted with Republican politics.
Email shows RNC chair Reince Priebus leaked info to Scott Walker about primary opponentRepublican National Committee chair Reince Priebus gave Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) inside information leading up to his 2010 election, Isthmus reported Wednesday night. Among the thousands of emails recovered as part of a recently-concluded investigation…
On a sidenote, you would think with as much as I have written against RNC Chair Priebus and the RNC not to mention emails and phone calls telling them to 'shove it' that someone would have taken me off their snail mail list. That would be wrong -- received another fundraising letter yesterday except unlike in the past they didn't include any dollar bills to send back. Wonder how much they lost on that scheme -- I was one of those who kept the money.
Anyone who has any type of reading comprehension, knows Preibus and Gov Walker are not very ethical and with the release of emails in Wisconsin the people of the state are finding out that neither one of them have any ethics and don't care. Still recovering from the people around Governor Walker being a bunch of racists according to emails that have been released.
Taking a lot around at some comments out of Republicans this week makes me extremely happy that I have told them to get lost. From CNN:
IGOR BOBIC – FEBRUARY 20, 2014, 10:35 AM EST14691
Texas gubernatorial candidate Greg Abbott (R) was happy to campaign with conservative troll Ted Nugent this week, despite the fact the rocker once called President Obama a "chimpanzee" and a "subhuman mongrel."
Asked repeatedly by CNN's Ed Lavandera whether he thought it was appropriate to associate himself with someone with such a history of vitriolic and racist remarks, Abbott deflected by saying Nugent was instrumental in going after his opponent.
"Ted Nugent was a way to expose Wendy Davis for her flip-flopping on gun related issues," he explained about the Democrat's support of an "open carry" gun law.
At one point in the video, Abbott's communications director tries to cut off the reporter in front of the camera.

Michelle Bachman Says President Obama Got Elected Because of Slavery
By: Jason Easley
Thursday, February, 20th, 2014, 2:24 pm
Republicans aren’t even trying to hide their racism anymore. Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) that Barack Obama was only elected president because white people felt guilty about slavery.
Bachmann told Cal Thomas that she didn’t think America was ready for a woman president, then she gave her race based theory of why Barack Obama was elected:How does she explain how President Obama also won in 2012? Answer is she doesn't -- she is stuck in the same GOP mantra that President Obama was elected because he was black not because the Republican Party put up such lousy candidates. If the House Districts were not so badly gerrymandered, the Republicans would not be in charge of the House either. Republican Party and its hard right are turning off common sense Americans including Republicans who have had it with their anti-rhetoric if it is not their idea. The 'my way or no way' are fully in charge of the Republican Party at all levels today with common sense thrown out the window.
Bachmann says a lot of people “aren’t ready” for a female president. “I think there was a cachet about having an African-American president because of guilt.” (Presumably she means because of slavery and the lengthy denial of civil rights to blacks.) “People don’t hold guilt for a woman,” she says, adding that while people vote for women for virtually every other office “I don’t think there is a pent-up desire” for a woman president.
Speaker Boehner now says Congress may be done with meaningful legislation before the election. Guess you could call it a Boycott of Legislation by Republicans? This is February 20th and they don't plan on anything meaningful until after the November 4th election? Yet the American Taxpayers are paying those lowlifes to do nothing but start and expand investigations that have no basis in reality? Time for the American people to wake up and vote them out of office because they have turned their backs on us and the oaths they took when they were elected. Politics trumps all for the hard right Republicans while passing bills to help Americans and run the Government comes in dead last.
To anyone out there thinking they want to stay a Republican -- read that paragraph above and tell me why? There is not a legitimate answer that I can come up with on why anyone with a working brain could remain a Republican. The hard right has taken over the entire Party and from what most of us can see the effort by the Chamber and other more mainstream Republicans is failing. How can anyone support a Party that uses Ted Nugent as a spokesman for the face of the party?
Only one answer for November since no one wants to start a new Centrist Party:
